PAGE FOUR THE CANADIAN STATESMAN, BOWMANVILLE, ONTARIO THURSDAY, MAY 3rd, 1945 H ell1o, Homemakers Y o u r spring housecleaning will be matie more pleasant if you refin- ish the furniture befone beginning the actual cleaning. You will be surprised at the resuits that can be achieveti if you are willing to spend the necessary time. We propose to tiiscuss the most com- mon mishaps that befali wood surfaces. Scratches: If a scratch is light, a little raw linseed oul will darken it. If the scratch is deep, appiy a littie weak stain to match it; allow to dry, repeat until scratch is the same color as rest of sur- face. Then polish or wax the whoie surface. Heat Bloom: Hot dishes may cause white marks on table tops, etc., due to the heat drying out the finish. Rub in furnitune polish or raw linseed oul and let stand on the spot for some time. Then polish until oul is entirely removed. Grease Spots: (a) Wash with washing soda; on (b) make a thick paste of Fuiler's Earth anti waten. Apply paste to spot and leave on over night. Remove paste and wash the wood. (c) If grease is soft when spilt, cover the spot immediateiy with colti water to harden it anti to prevent the grease from soaking in. Water Spots: These are veny persistent, especially if the water is harti, in which case it is neces- sary to nemove the stain by sand- ing before refinishing the surface. However, the following methods are effective in most cases: <a) Rub with a good furniture polish if the surface is finished with varnish. (b) Rub the spot with a cloth soaketi in weak, ammonia, wrur dry as possible. Polish with a fui niture oul. (c) Place a dlean blotter c woollen cloth above the spot ar Lthen apply a warm mron cautiou5 ly. Repeat if necessany. (d) Waxed surfaces may b treateti by rubbing briskly with 1soft cloth, or by applying liqui wax to the spot, or turpentine f0ý lowed by liquiti wax. Polish. T A KE "A *TIF 1.
